resolutions for 2012:
1) travel at least 3 times, to 3 different places. preferably i'd like one to be international, one to be someplace warm, and one to be to visit a friend.
I went to Europe (international) and California (to visit Reema). Technically i went to the Jersey Shore a bunch of times, but that's not "someplace warm" - it was just warm because it was August. so i suppose i did not fulfill the second one.
2) go to a hockey game! i miss hockey.
I went to two!!!! and it's a good thing because this year i, like, ACTUALLY miss hockey!
3) graduate from pharmacy school, pass the NAPLEX, get licensed in NJ and PA, and get a job i love.
check, check, check/almost check (just have to take the law exam for PA, but all the paperwork is done), and check!
4) prepare for residency and do my applications early!
this is being pushed to 2013 or 2014 because of my wedding (which was not something i knew about when i made these resolutions)
5) move out finally!
SIGH. im beginning to think this will never happen.
6) save $25,000 so i have something to use as a resident. i really think it's doable.
im not sure why i put this here, because this is definitely something that could not have realistically happened in 2012....this is just my resolution for before i get a residency
7) make ten items with my sewing machine!!!
I really only made two things: a dress for the 4th of July and an apron for my Halloween costume that never happened b/c of Sandy. i started another dress in December but never finished it. but i altered a whole bunch of things, hemmed stuff, fixed zippers, etc. not sure if they count, but im guessing there were more than ten alterations.
8) make a Kenshin costume for a con since all this Kenshin stuff is coming out! im thinking Misao :)
i started my Misao costume! i have all the fabric and some of it is cut out. Kenshin got pushed to next year's cons anyway.
9) learn that guitar song :)
HAHAHA of course not
resolutions for 2013:
1) get married!
2) move into my own apartment. fucking finally.
3) publish another pharmacy article
4) start writing a book, or essays, or something
5) save ten thousand dollars (downgraded from $25k due to wedding reasons)
6) start learning Spanish. even baby steps count.

8) visit at least one US state to which I have not yet been
9) see the live-action Kenshin movie
10) watch three new TV shows in their entirety. one has to be Breaking Bad or Dexter!
